Bob van Reeth never rebelled against the architectural status quo, but preferred to quietly ignore its orthodoxies, finding inspiration in the brickyards of his native region on the banks of the River Scheldt in Belgium. These structures, with their sometimes bizarre outbuildings, proved a galvanizing resource for a young architect who, moved by the social revolutions of 1968, aspired to restore a civic fluidity to the spaces in which we live and act. Van Reeth offsets spontaneity with a skill and precision that place him at the forefront of his generation of designers. His works include the Botte House, Battel, Mechelen (1969-71), a project for a new wing at Onze-Lieve-Vrouwcollege, Antwerp (1977-1978) and the Huis Van Roosmalen, Sint-Michielskaai, Antwerp (1985-1987).
